Hi, I have a website 2 languages Portuguese and English. Both versions has different Top Menu, one in Portguese with pages in the same language and other is in English. I wanted to have the same gallery for both so I would like to upload the photos just one time for both sites, but I wanted both to have different menus, I don't know if it is possible to do that with just one gallery, if it is please let me know. If it is not, what I tried was making 2 galleries with Zen Photo But I would like to know how do I point the second gallery to show the images from the first one? I changed just the zp-config.php but it isn't showing correctly, here is the second one: http://www.patriciaheguchi.com/galeria/ and here is the first one: http://www.patriciaheguchi.com/PHotos/ I wanted to show exacly the same on the second one and use the same database but just change the template. Is that possible?

    Yes, it is, even with the same template (theme). Zenphoto is multilingual.

    Just enable the multilingual checkbox on Options > Gallery > Language. Then all text fields like image titles will turn into a list with all languages currently installed. You will have to download one of the two Portuguese translation variants from here: http://www.zenphoto.org/trac/report/9
    The translations are both outdated but that does not matter for the multilingual fields itself. They just need to be present in `zp-core/locale` so that you can use the translation for the multilingual stuff.

    Thanks! Can I display 2 templates with different URL addresses for different sites but keeping the same images?

    Zenphoto's multilingual features determines the language either by what the browser requests or by option (dynamic locale plugin) under the same URL. Depending on your knowledge you could change the css depending on the language selected.

    Using two installs makes the multilingual stuff a little pointless. You however could change the "albums" folder link in `zp-data/zp-config.php` to point to the one of the second install to use hte same images (try a forum search, people have done that before).
